Automate Sabre Fare Monitoring and Find Lower Fares

Less is an automated Sabre fare-monitoring service for travel agencies and TMCs. It continually reprices an existing PNR using the agency’s specified pricing instructions and savings criteria. When a qualifying lower fare is found, Less can notify your team by email, place the PNR on a Sabre queue, or do both according to your agency’s workflow.

Stop Chasing Price Drops Manually.

It is a well-known reality in the travel industry: airline fares fluctuate constantly. For dedicated agents, trying to ensure your clients always receive the absolute lowest rate means committing to a relentless, frustrating game of catch-up. Tracking these unpredictable price swings while also managing your active bookings is an operational nightmare.

The traditional fix isn't much better. Manual checking means you are almost guaranteed to miss out on significant price drops simply because you were focused on another client.

How Less Works

  • Add the request: The agent adds remarks to the Sabre PNR specifying the pricing instructions, savings criteria, stop date, and requested notification method.
  • Monitor the fare: Less reprices the existing itinerary at the configured interval using the agency’s selected pricing entry.
  • Compare the result: Less evaluates the new price against either a specified target amount or the existing Sabre Price Quote record.
  • Notify your team: When the fare meets the agency’s savings criteria, Less sends an email, places the PNR on queue, or performs both actions according to the agency’s workflow.

The Solution: 24/7 Automated Fare-Monitoring Magic

You don't need to fight fluctuating fares alone. Our automated low-fare finder, Less, acts as your dedicated, round-the-clock fare watchdog. Specifically engineered to target cost reduction, Less works tirelessly in the background to ensure your clients are always booked at the lowest possible price point.

This 24/7 automated scan completely transforms your low-fare strategy:

  • Relentless Pricing Checks: Less continually scans for cheaper options using your exact parameters, running active checks right up until your desired stop date.
  • Flexible Goal Settings: You dictate what constitutes a "win." Toggle between targeting a strict dollar amount or looking for specific savings based on an existing Price Quote (PQ).
  • Instant Alerts & Actions: The moment the system intercepts a lower fare that meets your criteria, it immediately emails you and/or drops it straight onto queue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Less work with existing Sabre PNRs?

Yes. Less monitors an existing Sabre PNR and continually reprices its booked itinerary according to the agency’s configured instructions entered as PNR remarks.

How does Less know what fare to look for?

The agent adds remarks to the PNR that specify the pricing entry, savings criteria, monitoring stop date, and preferred notification method.

How does Less determine whether a lower fare qualifies?

Less can compare the newly calculated fare against either a specific target amount or the PNR’s existing Sabre Price Quote record. It alerts the agency only when the configured savings criteria are met.

How often does Less check the fare?

Less will check for a lower fare twice per day.

How does Less notify our team when savings are found?

Less can send an email, place the PNR on a designated Sabre queue, or perform both actions according the remarks entered into the PNR.

Does Less automatically change or reissue the ticket?

No. Less identifies qualifying savings and alerts your team. It can place the PNR on queue so an agent can review the fare and complete the appropriate repricing or ticketing steps.
